Konkrétní připomínky a dotazy k práci:
The thesis written by Aleksandra Parshina examines the export potential of the Czech Republic in
Argentina. The first chapter presents an economic profile of Argentina, summarizing the most recent data.
It should be highlighted that this part is brief, includes just the most important aspects and is very easy to follow. The author shows that she is capable of working with economic data.
The second chapter reviews the evolution of the theoretical knowledge of the comparative advantage. It departs from the most well-known and simplest models and continues to those more complicated. It also includes the concept of the revealed comparative advantage and describes indicators that measure the export potential. It is highly appreciated that the author included counterarguments and limitations of every model and explained well the reasoning behind the choice of the model for this thesis.
The third chapter includes a step-by-step calculation of the export potential of the Czech Republic in Argentina, following the ITC methodology. Every subchapter provides data sources, explains omitted data, if necessary, and presents the calculation with a detailed statistical overview. The thesis concludes with the calculated number and comments on the (unrealized) export potential and its main areas.
It should be highlighted that the thesis provides a high-quality analysis of the field, using reliable data sources and methods. The stylistics is on a high level, showing a very good knowledge of the language.
The only mistake can be found in headings (not written with capital letters). I would especially like to acknowledge the professional way of depicting graphs and tables (detailed description of units of measure, their uniformity etc.). As far as the content is concerned, the topic of the thesis was well-defined and narrowed, which provided for a very useful analysis of the field. For academic purposes, I would
recommend highlighting more the hypothesis and the answer to it, although the conclusion of the thesis is very clear, and this detail does not lower the quality of the presented paper.
For all the reasons mentioned above, I consider this bachelor thesis a paper with an excellent quality, and I recommend it for defence.
Possible questions for defence: 1. What could be the practical limitations of realizing the unrealized potential in the 5 most important fields? Are those limitations linked to the limitations of the ITM
methodology of export potential calculation, which is described at the end of the second chapter? 2. As mentioned in the conclusion, what could be the potential obstacles for Czech companies that would like to trade with Argentina?
Závěr: Bakalářskou práci doporučuji k obhajobě.
